Post #6

I choose this handmade book because it caught my attention with it's unique form. It reminds me of when you stand up all the dominoes in the form you want and then push them over like people do in a domino rally. It also reminds my of an sculpture of some sort. She uses found text to make her sculpture like book and arrange them in a thematic way. Susan Porteous doesn't use words or pictures that but it looks like she made it out of cardboard or paper with orange string holding it together. I don't know why this book was made in this way or what it represents but this is something I really want to know. One more thing I would like to know is what inspired her to make this sculpture?
